Jamaican Meat Pie or Jamaican Beef Patties

Detailed Recipe: http://www.cheflolaskitchen.com/jamaican-meat-pie-jamaican-beef-patty/

Today I'm going to be showing you how to make Jamaican beef patties or the Jamaican with pies as some would like to call it. So let's get started with the list of ingredients we are going to be using for this recipe: green onions some breadcrumbs diced onions some ground beef salsa taste curry powder paprika allspice vegetable oil some diced habanero pepper thyme black pepper minced garlic.

I will also be using a little bit of bouillon powder this is actually very optional but I usually like to use this because I like that umami flavor it adds to the feeling.

So to start with I am going to be preheating some oil inside my pan and once the oil is hot I'm going to be adding the diced onion then I'm going to be steer frying this until the onions become translucent at this point I am also going to be stirring in the diced garlic followed by the diced habanero pepper then I'm also going to be steering in the green onions once the onion becomes very translucent then it's time to add the ground beef.

So while you are browning the ground beef make sure you use your wooden spoon to break it apart very well because you don't want everything to be clumped up together at this point as you can see the ground beef is well browned and the next thing I'm going to be adding is the breadcrumbs followed by the time curry powder black pepper allspice paprika salt to taste and my seasoning powder then I'm going to be mixing everything together until all this is well combined it's not time to cook this meat thoroughly and I'm going to be adding a little bit of water at this point stir it together thoroughly and kovai top then leave it to cook for about 10minutes or until all the water is almost absorbed by the meat the beef is now done and if you look closely you are going to see that it's very moist and that is the way we want it we don't want it too dry so I'm going to be leaving this aside to cool down while I prepare our dough for the dough I'm going to be using two teaspoons of sugar one teaspoon of salt one tablespoon of turmeric powder to also 14 tablespoons of water one cup of very cold butter that is two sticks of butter and four cups of all-purpose flour.

Now let's put all this together today I'm going to be using it food processor but you can definitely use your fingers to do this I'm going to be adding my all-purpose flour to the food processor followed by the turmeric powder the sugar the salt and of course the bottom

Now I'm going to be using the pause button of my food processor to process this until everything comes together and becomes very crumbly now if you look closely you can see the flour is now very crumbly the next thing I'm going to be doing right now is to add the water a little bit at a time until the dough is formed

I'll also be using the food processor to do this it makes the work quite easy but as I said earlier you can use your fingers to just mix everything together all you have to do is to rub the butter inside the flour after some time key to become crumbly then you can start adding the water and from your tool you don't want to over process to do otherwise is to become too stretchy
Now the dough is formed and I'm going to be taking its out from the food processor as you can see this dough is not so hard and it's not too soft that is the exact texture we want so at this point I'm going to be transferring this dough inside my glass bowl

I'll just need is for about 30 seconds to 1 minute then I'm going to transfer it into a plastic bag I'm using this twistable plastic bags anyone would you and I'm going to be transferring these to the fridge to rest for about 20 minutes or thereabouts and you can also leave this to rest for a little longer. it's all well and good in fact the longer the better

So I do it's been resting for about 20 minutes now but before I bring it out I'm going to be preparing my egg wash and this is one egg with about 2 tablespoons of water I'm going to whisk this together and

I'll set it aside now at this point I'm going to be working with half or tiptoe and while I'm working with half I'll leave the other half in the fridge so it doesn't come to room temperature so when working with the Jamaican patties is very good to have a very thin crust unlike the Nigerian meat pile which can be flexible you can have it thick or thin some will roll this out as thin as I want it they do has been well ruled outs to my satisfaction

So the next thing I'm going to do is to take my pipe cutter and you can use any circular objects around the house to cut outs tiptoe I'll now be taking the coat house do one at a time I'm going to be filling it with about two tablespoons of the filling you can use a little more or less depending on your preference but try not to overfill the tool otherwise you're going to find it hard to close it off
